"So you're telling me, the sun and moon don't MOVE here unless you tamper with them?" I asked.

"But of course, the same with the weather. That's how it has always worked." Celestia chuckled.

I'm sure I looked dumbstruck.

"That-how...that makes no sense! Where I come from, the sun and moon stay in one place and the planet rotates on it's axis which makes the days go round. And the weather isn't controlled by pegasii, they move from natural winds. Right Fugi? You've seen it!" I tap Fugi with my hind hoof.

The Predator cleared his throat, "Yes, yes I have. The way this land works is baffling to us."

Not a moment after he said that, I heard a Xenomorph screech and a scream. The Princesses, Spike and I flinched. OHHH NO, what are the xenomorphs doing?! I took off running in the direction of the scream, trying to find out which room out of the many it came from. With Eclipse on my back, he slowed me down a good bit. One set of the glass doors was open up ahead, and from it I could hear something being torn apart. OH GOD PLEASE DONT BE RIPPING A PONY APART!!

Entering the doorway, I look into the room to see the xenomorphs ripping apart a long roll of sparkly green fabric. Rarity was struggling in a tug of war with the Xeno warrior who had their teeth sunk into a piece of the fabric, she was using her magic aka telekenesis as a blue aura clung onto her end. I sighed of relief that no one was getting eaten alive, but this is still pretty bad.

"Back, BACK!! I need this material!" The unicorn shouted.

"ZALA! DROP IT!" I barked.

Zala, the warrior xenomorph, turned her head to see me and reluctantly let go of the fabric. The rest of them, even including well behaved Zeke dropped the fabric pieces they had shredded. Eclipse jumped off when I approached my Xeno kids as they hung their heads low, I sighed and pat their heads.

"Look what they did! I was going to use this for your dress!" Rarity said.

"I'm sorry, they must be hu-PARDON? What dress??" I raise a brow.

"Your princess dress of course! I intend on making it my finest design of coture!" She said proudly.

WHAT IS IT WITH EVERYONE SAYING IM A PRINCESS?!?! I AM NOT A PRINCESS!!! I hold back my visible frustration and sigh angrily.

"Rarity, was it? I'm sorry, but I'm not a dang Princess. Even if I was, I'd be a warrior and I wouldn't be caught DEAD wearing this shade of green. I wear more black, maybe purple blue red or maybe even yellow, but THIS green? That's a heck no from me."

"It's chartreuse! And then what will you wear to your coronation?" Rarity asks.

My jaw drops.

"Come again? I wasn't even INFORMED of a coronation." I snapped.

"It goes without asking that every alicorn is coronated, honestly how do you know almost nothing about alicorn royalty?"

There was visible anger in Sky's expression, her grey skin literally turning red from fury.

"BECAUSE I'M NOT A FUCKING PRINCESS!!!" She swore.

The Xenomorphs, Eclipse, Rarity, Spike and even the royal Princesses were in complete shock at the grey alicorns words, Fugi just looked away as he knew she was pissed. Sky was snorting as an angry horse would, she took a deep breath as she partially regained her composure but was still visibly furious.

"I've said before that I am NOT A Princess, but apparently nobody fucking heard me! It's like I'm talking to the fucking WALLS!! Y'all are so focused on a new alicorn in the midst that you didn't even consider why I'm even here, let alone ASK me what I thought about it!" The grey alicorn shouted.

Twilight then looked very guilty, as did her dragon companion. Sky then looked to Fugi.

"Fugi, can I trust you to keep watch of the Xenomorphs and make sure they don't destroy anything else?" She asks angrily.

"Of course."

"Good, I'm going out. Don't wait up for me!"

Sky stormed out past the stunned princesses and out through the main doors. Princess Luna looked to her older sister with a guilty look.

"Sister..."

Celestia sighed, "Go."
